It's now stripped......&nbsp\\; It was a real B1TCH!&nbsp\\; 15 year old corroded and rusted bolts, and the guy who owned this bike before did some real "half-a$$ed" work.&nbsp\\; Oh well, I'll get it done.&nbsp\\; one fo the ears in the back
(motor mounts) was already cracked, and fell off when I pulled the motor!&nbsp\\; My welder is all over it, and will weld it back on next week.&nbsp\\; Pics of this to follow.
